In a galaxy far away, an old star exploded and became a supernova. About 170 million years later on Feb. 4, 2018, the light emanating from the explosion was received by an arsenal of high-powered telescopes.http://www.nasa.gov/feature/ames/kepler-s-supernova-experiment-captures-first-moments-of-a-dying-starFri, 30 Nov 2018 06:00 ESTKepler News and FeaturesKepler Space Telescope Bid ‘Goodnight’ With Final Set of Commandshttp://www.nasa.gov/feature/ames/kepler-space-telescope-bid-goodnight-with-final-set-of-commands
On Thursday evening, NASA’s Kepler space telescope received its final set of commands to disconnect communications with Earth. The “goodnight” commands finalize the spacecraft’s transition into retirement, which began on Oct. 30 with NASA’s announcement that Kepler had run out of fuel and could no longer conduct science.http://www.nasa.gov/feature/ames/kepler-space-telescope-bid-goodnight-with-final-set-of-commandsFri, 16 Nov 2018 11:59 ESTKepler News and FeaturesNASA Retires Kepler Space Telescope, Passes Planet-Hunting Torchhttp://www.nasa.gov/press-release/nasa-retires-kepler-space-telescope-passes-planet-hunting-torch

The Kepler space telescope is done with its work collecting astounding science data showing there are more planets than stars in our galaxy. Here’s a round-up of what Kepler has achieved.http://www.nasa.gov/kepler/missionstatisticsTue, 30 Oct 2018 08:02 EDTKepler News and FeaturesNASA’s First Planet Hunter, the Kepler Space Telescope: 2009-2018http://www.nasa.gov/kepler/missiontimeline
NASA’s Kepler space telescope spent nine years in space, collecting an unprecedented dataset for science that has revolutionized our understanding of our place in the cosmos. It found our galaxy teeming with planets — more planets even than the stars — and stunned the world with many other first-of-a-kind discoveries.http://www.nasa.gov/kepler/missiontimelineTue, 30 Oct 2018 08:01 EDTKepler News and FeaturesA New View of Our Starry Nighthttp://www.nasa.gov/kepler/starrynight

Habitable? Sizing up a Galaxy of Planetshttp://www.nasa.gov/feature/jpl/rocky-habitable-sizing-up-a-galaxy-of-planets
The planets so far discovered across the Milky Way are a motley, teeming multitude: hot Jupiters, gas giants, small, rocky worlds and mysterious planets larger than Earth and smaller than Neptune. As we prepare to add many thousands more to the thousands found already, the search goes on for evidence of life– and for a world something like our own.http://www.nasa.gov/feature/jpl/rocky-habitable-sizing-up-a-galaxy-of-planetsThu, 25 Oct 2018 10:58 EDTKepler News and FeaturesAstronomers Find First Evidence of Possible Moon Outside Our Solar Systemhttp://www.nasa.gov/press-release/astronomers-find-first-evidence-of-possible-moon-outside-our-solar-system
Using NASA’s Hubble and Kepler space telescopes, astronomers have uncovered tantalizing evidence of what could be the first discovery of a moon orbiting a planet outside our solar system.http://www.nasa.gov/press-release/astronomers-find-first-evidence-of-possible-moon-outside-our-solar-systemWed, 03 Oct 2018 11:53 EDTKepler News and Features
